okay. a few things to remember- I spend $30 a year to be a premium member of the sweeps site, you get access to more sweeps and some other special things. I use roboform which lets you enter most sweeps at the click of a button While online at SOC or here or whatever I usually enter sweeps at the same time. Over all I'll spend a couple of hours a day on the computer sweeping. the * mark means it's a premium win the MSN sweep took over my life. unlike most you could enter unlimited times and it was an instant so you found out immediately if you won and from april-june I lived online entering it if an arv is listed it's what the rules said the prize is worth, not what I'd necessarily pay for it. The list is set up by the month I won it, the sweep's name and the prize.

Elana, you're like a sweepstakes queen! That MSN sweepstakes was very, very good to you! The amount of those gift certificates is nothing to sneeze at. And I really liked the Neutrogena "Pale is the new Tan" t-shirt. ;D I'll bet you get prizes in the mail almost every day. That would make getting the mail each day kinda exciting. My mail is always boring.

I usually get a freebie or win once a week. OLS has a very good freebie board. I'm also pretty selective with sweeps I enter. If I can't use a widget or no one in my family wants it I dont enter for it. Sometimes you'll enter for one prize in a sweep but get a different prize, but I try to only enter for things I want.

I don't get anything fun in the mail. Hubby gets stuff from Marlboro. The other day he got a harmonica. Back on the original subject for a second, I visit my mommy board numerous times a day and a softball website. Hopefully this one if I can keep up! Now, back to all the winnings!

Entenmann's - Score Big with Boboli Sweepstakes Sixth Prizes: Pair of Boboli insignia oven mitts-kitchen grips (ARV $24.99).* Hey, Elana - Entenmann's? Oven Mitts? Entenmann's? Oven Mitts? It bears repeating. Okay, I'm impressed. But how come you haven't won any FREE DONUTS? I'm shocked. Oh, and Karen, I WAS on a message board that Liz knows I called "The Board Of Despair". Nevermind its real name. It was doomsville all day all the time. I hate to admit it, but I still lurk around SOC and occasionally when I've been to lunch and indulged in too many Bloody Marys I will actually post something there. But no one cares.

Adam loves harmonicas, even though he can't play well. I think we have about 4. One that's worth it's weight though. (By the way Karen, SOC is Soap Opera Central, a message board where many of us met, it went downhill, and the sane people.... US.... came here instead.)
